Lemon and elderflower drizzle cake

This week I have got my baking mojo back.  

Its seems ages since I last properly baked something.

So what did I bake this week? 

Only the tastiest lemon drizzle cake I have ever tasted.

 

We love lemon cake here at number 2!
 

But this was the best ever.

At the end of the summer term I was given a bottle of homemade Elderflower Cordial from a little boy in my class.  

So when I spotted a recipe for Lemon and Elderflower drizzle cake at the weekend in a magazine I had to make it.

This cake is a twist on a classic drizzle cake as it has a crunchy elderflower topping, it’s a cake that reminded me of summer in every bite, it was bursting with zesty sunshine flavour.

 

Here is the recipe I used.  Mine was in a magazine but it is online here as well:

The magazine says the recipe has been taken from The Pink Whisk Guide to Cake Making by Ruth Clemens.  It's a book I haven't got but think I may have to put it on my Christmas list.
